nginx for Windows
nginx for Windows
Version of nginx for Windows uses the native Win32 API (not the Cygwin emulation layer). Only the select() connection processing method is currently used, so high performance and scalability should not be expected. Due to this and some other known issues version of nginx for Windows is considered to be a beta version. At this time, it provides almost the same functionality as a UNIX version of nginx except for XSLT filter, image filter, GeoIP module, and embedded Perl language.
To install nginx/Windows, download the latest mainline version distribution (1.13.1), since the mainline branch of nginx contains all known fixes. Then unpack the distribution, go to the nginx-1.13.1 directory
